description

Monograph / artist's book on the working process of On Kawara, with texts by René Denizot. "In the series, each number is 'Word for Word' the document of a practice by which it is informed. As for form, it's a referential number. As for references, a number in the series. Documentation sticks to this evidence. It is a plain as the nose in one's face; a symptom in the features of the text - not an act of faith. To each number its portrait. To each portrait its image. Indeed nobody is expected. But there are frames to 'make reference.' Is it a frame up? the text draws practice out of cultural preserve: - all resemblance with persons, situations, of facts existing or having existed is symptomatic coincidence." - from back cover of book. Texts in English and French.
